Abstract
Screen-based simulation (SBS) can complement traditional nursing courses. We compared the effect of innovative virtual environments not widespread in French nursing schools on self-efficacy, quiz performance, and self-regulated learning behaviors. This quasi-experimental study involved 1183 student nurses. Participants were divided into an experimental group (SBS training; n = 894) and a control group (textual content; n = 289). SBS group performed significantly better than controls (p < 0.001) and improved over time (p < 0.001). Controls performed worse over time (p < 0.001). In the control group, a single medium may have overloaded sensory channels, while SBS spread cognitive load across auditory and visual channels. SBS was more effective than traditional teaching and enhanced self-efficacy. This initial study is encouraging, suggesting further investigation into SBS in training and the analysis of learning behaviors through digital data.
期刊介绍:
Applied Cognitive Psychology seeks to publish the best papers dealing with psychological analyses of memory, learning, thinking, problem solving, language, and consciousness as they occur in the real world. Applied Cognitive Psychology will publish papers on a wide variety of issues and from diverse theoretical perspectives. The journal focuses on studies of human performance and basic cognitive skills in everyday environments including, but not restricted to, studies of eyewitness memory, autobiographical memory, spatial cognition, skill training, expertise and skilled behaviour. Articles will normally combine realistic investigations of real world events with appropriate theoretical analyses and proper appraisal of practical implications.
